The Pope is going to visit Kyiv and Moscow
The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry has repeatedly invited the Pope to Ukraine
This is reported by the publication Hromadske with reference to Reuters.
The Pope said he would like to realize a trip to Ukraine and Russia after he visits Canada
The first thing to do is to go to Russia to try to help in some way, but I would like to visit both capitals,” says Francis.
Francis had already expressed a desire to come to Russia a month ago. But then the Russian side answered him that it was inappropriate now. So far, no Pope has visited Moscow.
At the same time, the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry, in a commentary to Hromadsky, stated that the Ukrainian side had repeatedly invited the Pope to Ukraine. And now he will do it again.
